Default Beware the DHL!

On Sun, 20 May 2018 10:53:17 +0100, just as I was about to take a
herb, Gareth's Downstairs Computer
disturbed my reverie
and wrote:

Can't fathom out an admin charge when it's been DHL all the way from India.


AIUI, it is for collecting the fee and passing it on to HMRC. £15 is
as much a rip-off for that as it was for banks charging £25 for a
computer-generated letter. Any such fee should be included in the cost
of all international parcels/packages as they all have to go though
customs to check for illegal stuff.
